Operation for harelip Elates a Newborn at Roosevelt Hospital
A four month old child underwent a delicate harelip operation at Roosevelt Hospital on May 21. The procedure corrected the upper lip fissure and aimed to close the cleft palate via a periosteal tent and silver plate support. The mother’s fears stemmed from the father’s own harelip and cleft palate history. The child’s condition improved as wounds healed and the facial structure began to form, with recovery proceeding well.
